This stay

Everything else you do in a day starts here.

• Okubo 大久保3 min · 251 m
• Shin-Ōkubo 新大久保6 min · 519 m
• Nishi-shinjuku 西新宿9 min · 725 m
• Seibu-Shinjuku 西武新宿10 min · 778 m

Where there is no train, this is the way out. Stops on both sides of one road are counted once.

• Okubo Station 大久保駅1 min · 109 m
• Ookubo Station Mae 大久保駅前2 min · 192 m

Matters once you are staying more than a few nights.

• My Basket まいばすけっと2 min · 162 m
• Olympic オリンピック3 min · 240 m

Open late, sells water, food, and usually has an ATM that takes foreign cards.

• 7-Eleven セブン-イレブン1 min · 114 m
• FamilyMart ファミリーマート2 min · 136 m

Getting ill is the thing most likely to ruin a trip.

• Hijikata Pharmacy ヒジカタ薬局1 min · 112 m
• Sukiya Kitashinjuku Ichi Choume Branch すき家 北新宿一丁目店2 min · 142 m

Seven Bank, Lawson Bank, E-net, Aeon and Japan Post accept cards issued outside Japan. Most other Japanese bank ATMs decline them, so they are not counted here. Post offices are counted, because that is where most Japan Post machines are.

• Seven Bank セブン銀行1 min · 82 m
• Aeon Bank イオン銀行2 min · 177 m

Restaurants and fast food. Cafes are not counted — most close before dinner.

• Soba Izakaya Ki Sara 蕎麦居酒屋きさら1 min · 25 m
• Soen 蘇園1 min · 91 m
• Torattoria Piatto トラットリアピアット1 min · 102 m

Somewhere to sit in the morning that is not your room.

• A Te Reko あてれこ2 min · 125 m
• Kissashitsu Runoaaru Ookubo Branch 喫茶室ルノアール 大久保店2 min · 129 m

Somewhere to walk that is not a shopping street.

• Satsuki Jidou Garden さつき児童庭園2 min · 140 m
• Kita San Momiji Park 北三もみじ公園3 min · 272 m

Attractions, museums, viewpoints, castles and monuments. Ordinary neighbourhood shrines are not counted — Japan has tens of thousands, and counting them would make every street look remarkable.

• Shokkou Saka 蜀江坂5 min · 411 m
• Tenjin Yu (ten Jin'yu) 天神湯 ( てんじんゆ )6 min · 480 m
• Sight 8 min · 636 m

Often the reason for the trip rather than a convenience.

• Kashiwa Yu 柏湯8 min · 662 m

Shown for information only. About 3,000 are mapped for the whole country against many times that in reality, so a hit here is worth something and a miss means nothing.

Shown for information only. Our sources cover this category unevenly, so a low count here may mean the map is incomplete rather than the area is.

• Strangelove Records 8 min · 628 m
• 신오쿠보플떡랜드 8 min · 641 m

Counted as a plus here. A property tool would count the same places as a minus.

• Gaaruzu Izakaya Hana Sakaba ガールズ居酒屋　花酒場1 min · 89 m
• Ido No Chawan 井戸の茶碗2 min · 139 m

Staffed neighbourhood police posts. The default place to go if something goes wrong.

• Shinjuku Keisatsusho Kitashinjuku Ichi Choume Koban 新宿警察署北新宿一丁目交番7 min · 530 m
